Synopsis

Amy Goodman has reported some of the most consequential stories of our time. Steal This Story, Please. is a gripping portrait of a journalist whose unwavering commitment to truth-telling spans three decades of turbulent history.

Moviegoers are saying

This documentary about broadcast journalist Amy Goodman divides audiences between deep admiration for her fearless activism and concerns about its heavy emotional weight. Reviewers consistently praise Goodman's unwavering commitment to truth-telling journalism, from surviving the Santa Cruz massacre in East Timor to being arrested while covering Dakota Access Pipeline protests, though some find the film's density of global atrocities overwhelming for casual viewing.

Amy Goodman is pretty fantastic. That’s the thesis of the doc and I support it. What an incredible career (present continuous) and experiences. Can someone please find out where her resilience and energy comes from and do they deliver?
